a couple of years ago, two amazing milestones happened

I turned 60 years YOUNG!!!!

on top of right wrist are first letters of my 3 grand-kids names (small lovely italic)

little red heart under each letter too

sorry no good at pics (looks something like this)

hubby wasn't thrilled - (what a fuddy dud!! LOL)

I promised no more tattoos for the next 60 years!!!!

You’re transforming, right? How about a butterfly chrysalis? If I ever got a tattoo, that would be it. Here's an example.

Are you sure that you want to ask for suggestions? It may be fun to compare choices, but a tattoo is a personal statement. Only you know what appeals to your aesthetic sense and what you want to express. When the tattoo that's right for you presents itself, you'll recognize it. If I were in the market for ink, I'm sure that, were I to take a suggestion, I'd some time feel as though I had someone else's tattoo. No way is that acceptable to me.

Your call, of course.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
